Description

This is a telegram from a prominent Spokane newspaper, the Daily Globe, to one of Washington State's senators, Watson C. Squire, inquiring about the status of a ratification vote on the treaty ceding much of the reservation lands formerly held by the Coeur d'Alene tribe. The newspaper emphasizes the high level of public interest in the vote, and strongly urges Squire to be successful in securing passage of the treaty.
